The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



July 2, 1908. 



BALTIMORE. • ' 



The Market 



Intensely hot weather, a deluge of 

 flowers, many of them of poor quality, 

 and an indifferent demand is the situ- 

 ation at present. Last week saw good 

 calls for graduation and wedding 

 bouquets, but, even with these, prices 

 slumped to quite low figures on nearly 

 all lines, the buyers rather than the 

 sellers fixing the prices. Both roses 

 and carnations are selling low and are 

 poor. Sweet peas are arriving in large 

 quantities and sell fairly well. Dahlias 

 have made their appearance in the 

 markets, but are poor. Smilax is scarce, 

 but asparagus of all kinds is plentiful 

 and cheap. 



Various Notes. 



C. Gregorius, of Park Heights ave- 

 nue, had a fine lot of giganteum. They 

 averaged four flowers to a plant and 

 every one out of 500 came perfect. 



Charles Hamilton, of Mount Washing- 

 ton, was elected a member of the club 

 at the last meeting. He has a large 

 place and does a wholesale as well as 

 a retail business. C. M. Wagner is 

 manager for him. 



Halliday Bros, have started to plant 

 their carnations inside, as they believe 

 in early planting. 



William Terry, of Owings Mills, has 

 given up his stall in the Lexington 

 market and expects to wholesale all of 

 his goods. 



K A. Seidewitz has extended his 

 water system so as to be able to water 

 all of his stock which is planted in the 

 open ground. Q. 



BooTHWYN, Pa. — John Frigar is 

 erecting a fine conservatory at his coun- 

 try residence, near this place. 



Sleepy Eye, Minn. — There was heavy 

 hail here June 23. No great damage was 

 done to greenhouse glass, but soft-wooded 

 stock outdoors was badly cut up.
